I have averaged between 19-21 MPG on my Duramax since I bought new. For the last few months my milage has decreased to 16 MPG on my fill-up today. Truck is stock, no mods or changes, except I have used Standyne treatment a few times recently. I don't see how the Standyne could cause this, any ideas?

I have noticed mine has dropped as well. Winter grade fuel maybe?
Also, where in E. TN are you?

ours is an '02 3500 ... consistently gets 15.5-16.5 mix of city/county driving to work ... 17-19 interstate travel (speed has proven to be the enemy of mileage) ... 10.5 towing a heavy 33' camper

Winter fuel, combined with extra time needed to warm-up the truck. I've gone from consistantly 17+ (yeah, I'm on-it all the time!) to 14-15. I'm not concerned.

Typically the milage drops off, when the colder weather shows up. Some people say that adding an addative helps compensate.
